History

Overview

Chaparanga is a beach located in Indonesia and an humanitarian and ecological continued disaster, being a space-ships graveyard.[1]

Origin

Since more and more Aliens space-ships were falling on Earth (Cyclops speculated there was about one per week in the modern era). As every government can't deal with them (neutralize the systems, toxic components, etc), they are sold to private company who scuttle them in order to find useful component and technology, before dumping them to Chaparanga, with sometimes functioning systems, and even still flying ships.[1]

With a poverty level very high, the local people have no choice but to strip the ships for salvage metal, and alien systems and sell them to foreign company or to their government. Wolverine, quoting stats, mentioned that, at any time, at least three ships in Chaparanga were operational and lauch-capable, before adding it was one of the five most dangerous places on Earth.[1]

Ghost Boxes

Using the "Triploid Mutant"'s note-book, the X-Men were able to follow him, and stop him right before he could make it. The ships was taken down and the "Subject X" preferred suicide rather surrender.[2] The X-Men then leaves, taking a blood sample and the Ghost Box with them.[3]

Logan came to the Last Astronaut bar, and soon, all costumers lefr, under Rachel's mind-control.[4][5]

The X-Men themselves had set a trap around to them, bringing the Phoenix-poweredNamor and a squad of X-Men. The Avengers revealed to have a second trap prepared, fainting to evacuate Hope Summers who revealed to be a projection of her created by Charles Xavier in order to battle Rachel.

Trivia

Chaparanga Beach is an obvious reference for the South countries, such as India, who accept to stock on their beaches and lands radioactive materials, asbestos-contamined ships, etc,. It is probably inspired by the Alang Bay, and the controversy about the French aircraft carrier Clemenceau.
